A few thoughts:
You mean “your ten favorite” I expect rather than “top ten”. I’m in no position to say which are in the top ten but I could tell someone which ten I like best. First of all, anyone who denies the Beatles as a group are not in the top ten is telling me they just don’t like their music. Fair enough. Not in the top ten by about any criteria? Impossible.
I liked the ballad-like songs of Chad and Jeremy. I think they’d been bigger yet had Chad Stuart not broken away into acting at the height of their American popularity. Peter and Gordon had a couple of great songs. Gerry and the Pacemakers and a couple from the DC5 (Mike Smith, the keyboard player was a great talent).
Chad Stuart and Gerry (of the PMKers) both passed within the last two years or so.
There are a bunch of groups here who might have been good, even very good, but just didn’t play the kind of music I liked.
Edit: I was in HS 63-67.
